“The idea for the dish sprouted from when I first came on board with Kaori,” Li says. “We had limited amounts of garlic in-house, so I replaced the traditional garlic seen in hummus with black garlic we had lying around, and it was an instant moment of revelation. The dish was a hit. The addition of our house-made spiced pumpkin seed furikake for some texture, and the chili sesame oil for some heat was definitely the icing and the candle on the cake.”
Even if you can’t make it to Miami, you can still enjoy this breakthrough dip with the recipe below.
